Introduction of µ a la Bloch & Wettig (PRL 2006 & PRD2007) Unfortunately breaks chiral symmetry! (Banerjee, Gavai & Sharma PRD 2008; PoS (Lattice 2008); PRD 2009 ) Good News : Problem Solved!

14 Using chiral projectors for overlap fermions as, ψ L = [1 γ 5 (1 ad ov )]ψ/2 & ψ R = [1 + γ 5 (1 ad ov )]ψ/2, leaving the antiquark field decomposition as in the continuum, the overlap action for nonzero µ is S F = n [ ψ n,l (ad ov + aµγ 4 )ψ n,l + ψ n,r (ad ov + aµγ 4 )ψ n,r ] = n ψ n [ad ov + aµγ 4 (1 ad ov /2)]ψ n.

28 Higher order NLS are more involved. E.g., at the 8th order, terms involve operators up to O 8 which in turn have terms up to 8 quark propagators and combinations of M and M. In fact, the entire evaluation of the χ 80 needs 20 inversions of Dirac matrix. This can be reduced to 8 inversions using an action linear in µ (Gavai-Sharma PRD 2012 & PRD 2010), leading still to results in agreement with that exponential in µ.

59 Smooth & monotonic behaviour for large s : m 1 and m 3. Note that even in this smooth region, an experimental comparison is exciting : Direct Non-Perturbative test of QCD in hot and dense environment. Our estimated critical point suggests non-monotonic behaviour in all m i, which should be accessible to the low energy scan of RHIC BNL! Proton number fluctuations (Hatta-Stephenov, PRL 2003) Neat idea : directly linked to the baryonic susceptibility which ought to diverge at the critical point. Since diverging ξ is linked to σ mode, which cannot mix with any isospin modes, expect χ I to be regular. Leads to a ratio χ Q :χ I :χ B = 1:0:4 Assuming protons, neutrons, pions to dominate, both χ Q and χ B can be shown to be proton number fluctuations only.
